To 

Mr. Cornelius Briggs, 

who, like Cornelius of old, 

is truly devout and fears God, and is one of the 

"■pillars" of the Church of Christ in Manomet, 

this book is lovingly dedicated 

by 

his pastor. 



We speak of a Merry Christmas, 
And many a Happy New Year: 

But each in his heart is thinking 
Of those that are not here. 

— Longfelloiv. 



INTRODUCTION. 



Two things have induced 
pamphlet-form the epitaphs in the Ojdil Burial Hill 
in Manomet, Plymouth. One is the great value 
of the cemetery as to its age, situation, and mem- 
ories associated with it, and the other is the in- 
herent worth of the inscriptions replete with 
sound, Christian sentiments, which have always 
characterized New England. 

The burial ground above-mentioned is un- 
doubtedly the second oldest cemetery (for white 
people) on Plymouth soil. There is no way, 
however, by which the date of the first interment 
can be ascertained. The oldest epitaph bears the 
date of 1 71 7. But judging by the fact that 
Manomet or South Plymouth was settled in 1639, 
only 19 years after the landing of the Pilgrims, 
w'e can be sure that this venerable cemetery was 
in use long before 17 17, perhaps not many years 
after 1639. 

The cemetery has an enviable situation on the 
crest of a hill, which is literally covered with 
shapely cedars reminding one of the cedar- 
crowned hills of Lebanon. It is in full view of 
Massachusetts Bay, which must have been a part 
of the route of that famous craft, the Mayflower, 
bringing in her precious cargo of humanity. 



-( — 



There one can listen to the incessant music of 
the majestic ocean, the lap-lapping of the waves 
in calm weather, and the roaring of the billows 
in the times of storm. 

There the zephyr has its headquarters and the 
Boreas its rendezvous. 

No other spot on Plymouth soil is better fitted 
to be "God's acre" than this piece of ground hal- 
lowed by the memories of the past. 

Some of the epitaphs are highly interesting 
specimens of the art of sepulchral inscription of 
years gone by. With all their orthographical, 
srrammatical and accidental errors, with their 
crude engravings of lachrymatories or "tear- 
bottles," with their skulls, and crossbones, and 
weeping-willows, and finally with their ungainly 
chirography, they present to the eye as attractive 
a collection as any archeologist would desire to 
behold. 

I have made no attempt at editing these epitaphs, 
I have copied every inscription in the cemetery, 
excepting three which are undecipherable. The 
epitaphs in this pamphlet are, therefore, the true 
— verbatim ct literatim et punctuatim — pictures 
of the originals, minus the picturesque appear- 
ance of some of the engravings. 

The inherent value of the inscriptions lies in 
the sentiments they express. Read the unar- 
tistic rhymes; note the Scriptural quotations, and 
give attention to the different unpolished senti- 
ments, and you will at once be able to form an 
approximate idea of the character of the men and 



women in whose memory these records have been 
preserved. 

Living in and with Christ; dying in Christ 
with an indescribable joy; being transformed 
into the image of the Saviour; submission to 
God's will; devotion to Christ; salvation by 
grace and through watchfulness for the last hour; 
and finally, a firm belief in the immortality of the 
soul and in a blissful existence beyond this life — 
these are some of the indications that give us an 
insight into the character of the glorified dead of 
Manomet. It was the spirit dominant in these 
men and women of God, these heroes and heroines 
in home-spun, that ha-\& electrified — I was almost 
saying Yankeefied — not only every section of this 
country, but of the whole world. It was this 
spirit that under God made America what it is 
to-day. 

May the enviable name they have transmitted 
to their posterity ever remain unblemished, and 
the goodly heritage they have submitted to their 
care be kept untarnished is the earnest prayer of 

Haig Adadourian, 

The Compiler.

POSTSCRIPT. 



A word explanatory of the title of this book- 
let is not ont of place here. I have already pub- 
lished three pamphlets concerning Manomet. 
The first is a sermon entitled. "If Jesus Came to 
Manomet," the second contains the proceedings 
of the one hundred and sixtieth anniversary cele- 
bration of the Church of Christ in Manomet, and 
the third is a repository of the obituaries of some 
Manomet people. 

Following the order of publication, I have 
christened this fourth booklet with the title of 
"Manometiana Number Four." The word 
Manometiana is neither a lexicon word, nor a col- 
loquial expression. It is a term improvised for 
the occasion by The Compiler. 



NECROLOGY. 



Hoiv beautiful it is for a man to die 
Upon the ivalls of Zion! to he called 
Like a zvatch-zcorn and iveary sentinel, 
To put his armour oif, and rest in heaven.

Or shake at deaths arlarm,

To call us to his arms.
